    Google Cloud PostgreSQL under pgwatch2 monitoring

    Pretty often I’m asked – does our PostgreSQL monitoring tool pgwatch2 work with managed cloud database service providers, for example, Google Cloud? Well, the short answer would be – “Yes, we scan!”. But as always – the devil is in the details, and you should be aware of a couple of nuances/extra steps. In order […]

    A quick pg_stat_statements troubleshooting hack

    By Kaarel Moppel How can I use pg_stat_statements for troubleshooting? First, an introductory story (with some slight “drama” added for fun) from those good old days of on-site consulting 🙂 So…I’m at a client where the database is not behaving nicely among other things…what a crappy DB product indeed I hear, it gets cranky every […]

    shared_buffers: Looking into the PostgreSQL I/O cache

    The PostgreSQL caching system has always been a bit of a miracle to many people and many have asked me during consulting or training sessions: How can I figure out what the PostgreSQL I/O cache really contains? What is in shared buffers and how can one figure out? This post will answer this kind of […]

    Row change auditing options for PostgreSQL

    By Kaarel Moppel Recently, I was asked for advice on how to reasonably implement a common task of table change tracking – meaning a so-called “audit trail” for all row changes over time was required. The keyword “compliance” might also ring a bell in this context, here for those who work in finance or for […]

    PostgreSQL v12 initial query performance impressions

    By Kaarel Moppel   With the latest major version freshly released, it’s again time to gauge its performance. I’ve already been doing this for years, and I have my scripts ready, so it’s not too much work for me – but rather, for the machines. The v12 release, as always, adds quite a lot of […]

    Fixing track_activity_query_size in postgresql.conf

    Many of you might have wondered why some system views and monitoring statistics in PostgreSQL can contain incomplete query strings. The answer is that in PostgreSQL, it’s a configuration parameter that determines when a query will be cut off: track_activity_query_size. This blog post explains what this parameter does and how it can be used to […]

Continuing the tradition, I’m calling it “Feature Pack 4” as it’s mostly […]
